Description
In this lesson I'll show you how to play the intro riff that reoccurs throughout the song whenever there's a break in the vocals. This is a classic Delta blues riff and although it is pretty tricky to do at first, it's a ton of fun once you get it. We're also going to talk about how to use tempo variations as a tool of emotional expression in this song.
